Howa mini AR stock - garyrapp55 - 12-20-2019
Hello,
I'm about to get a barreled action for my son. Because he is a little guy, I want a collapsible stock so the LOP fits him comfortable without him stretching his neck like a turtle. Looks like the MDT chassis is way I'll go. Knowing it needs no spring and buffer, I only need a tube and stock, correct?
I'm waiting on a response from Oryx as well. They show Mini and Mini youth inlets. We all know full well Howa makes one action size so does anyone here know what the difference from Oryx is? I appreciate any insight you guys can offer additionally.

I used the brownells version made by MDT and only needed the buffer tube, castle nut, and stock. Use a stock where you can add a cheek riser piece. You might need it to get a good cheek weld to see through the scope.

This usually goes on sale for 300ish

My understanding of the oryx chassis is the total length of pull is diffrent between the two I let models they show that fit the howa mini action.
One has a length of pull suited for adults and one has a length of pull better suited for children and short armed guys.

Oryx sent a message back.
"Hello Gary,
Yes, the inletting is the same, we reduce the length of pull by 1" with the youth version."
Good to know, thought I'd share.
